Leave a reply

Today, when using POI to do an Excel export, a null pointer error is always reported. Later, after I carefully searched through the log, I found the real problem;

The error is as follows:

HTTP Status 500 – Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

type Exception report

message Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

description The server encountered an internal error that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.77 logs.

However, this is not the problem; when I debugged, I found another cause of the error;

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The workbook already contains a sheet with this name

The workbook already contains a piece of this name;

Okay, I found the problem.

solution:

Just modify the sheet page name in the export template;
